Some of the tennis players have a dancing bone that they aren’t afraid to exercise. Hence, on the occasion of International Dance Day, some tennis stars showed their dance moves. Leading the charge were World No.1 Novak Djokovic and American teenage sensation, Coco Gauff along with some assistance from Argentine ace Diego Schwartzman.

Prominent tennis racquet brand, Head, posted a video on their social media handles showing off some of the dance skills of Coco Gauff, Novak Djokovic, and Diego Schwartzman.

Coco Gauff is a usual dancer on her Tiktok videos, but Novak Djokovic was seriously in a mood to dance. The 18-time Grand Slam champ was trying out various genres of dance and looked amazing and hilarious. Schwartzman, on the other hand, had basic dance steps with some members of his coaching team.

As the players were not together, they shot the videos at different locations. Thus, Gauff has now given her raw reactions to the dance performance.

Nevertheless, Gauff and Schwartzman will be seen in Madrid for the Madrid Open 2021. Djokovic was seeded first and supposed to defend his title in Madrid, but the Serbian decided to play in Belgrade later in May as a pre-event to the French Open.

Schwartzman is the seventh seed in Madrid. A good clay court player, Schwartzman is expected to perform much better than his earlier results in 2021.

Moving over to Gauff, she sees a tough challenge in the first round itself against former World No.1 Karolina Pliskova. On the clay, Gauff is still inexperienced, yet given her age, she should learn quickly and make inroads in elite tournaments like that of Madrid Open.
